Michael Owen has expressed his pride in his daughter Gemma Owen after the Love Island 2022 final came to an end.
During tonight’s grand finale, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti were crowned the winners of the series, leaving Gemma and her partner Luca Bish in second place.
Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope finished in third, while Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page ended their time in the competition in fourth place.
While former professional footballer Michael has refrained from speaking out too much about his 19-year-old daughter’s involvement on the show, after the finale wrapped up, he shared a message dedicated to her on social media.
Sharing a photo of them sitting together in a restaurant, he wrote: ‘She’s done us proud.’
Michael, 42, didn’t join his wife Louise Bonsall when she went into the villa for the meet-the-parents episode, so Luca’s yet to meet his partner’s famous dad.

While speaking to host Laura Whitmore during the live part of tonight’s final, Gemma opened up about how ‘stubborn’ her journey had been with Luca.
However, she also shared how similar they were as people, while explaining that she wanted to wait before making their relationship official so that she could get her family’s approval of Luca.
Meanwhile, he teased that he has something ‘special’ up his sleeve to ask Gemma to be his girlfriend in the outside world.
Love Island is available to watch on ITV Hub.
